Baylor’s Lanny O’Steen brought early-playmaking upside as a productive receiver
Lanny O’Steen showed real value in Baylor’s offense as a receiver who could contribute when the Bears were operating at a high-scoring clip, finishing as the team’s second-leading receiver with 279 yards in the season referenced by ESPN. He profiles as a useful fit if you want a dependable pass-catcher with size-and-speed balance rather than a pure headline star; Baylor listed him at 5'11", 180 during that era. The available reporting is limited, so the strongest takeaway is that he was a complementary receiver who helped fuel an explosive passing attack rather than a volume-heavy featured option.
